From: Effect of dietary fat type on anxiety-like and depression-like behavior in mice
The effect of long term feeding (4 weeks) of a particular diet containing different dietary fats (soybean oil, lard, or fish oil) on the anxiety-like behavior in the elevated plus-maze test. Mouse behavior was tested for a 10-min interval in the elevated plus-maze. Increase of the time in open arms (A) is considered an anxiolytic index, whereas the total moving distance (B) is considered an index of general locomotor activity. Values are means ± SE for 12 mice per group. Significantly different between 2 groups (*p < 0.05, by Tukey-Kramer multiple comparison test). P-values by one-way ANOVA are shown above each graph.
